Spectre711 Posted January 8, 2013 Share Posted January 8, 2013 (edited) The general idea of the National Reserves Group Build is to build a vehicle that served at any point in time with a reserve or auxiliary unit of any nation. We're talking anything from trainers to bombers to reconnaissance and from Hummers to helicopters. - Any vehicle (land, sea or air) from any reserve unit from any Country (ANG, Air Force Reserve, Marine Reserve, Naval Reserve, Army Reserve, RAuxAF,.......Etc.) Your build must be wearing reserve unit markings and they should have existed. - There will be no What-ifs. - A work in progress thread is mandatory. - The build cant be more than 30% completed by the start of the GB. - You can build straight out of the box or load it up with as much aftermarket as you want. - You can build as many kits as you want in the alloted time. - We are open for building from January 1 through July 1, 2013 and your hosts will be me and ThePhantomTwo. Please post what you will be building in the What I'm Building thread. We will have a raffle at the end of the build on a donations basis for all participants that completed the build. This is brought in part from some generous Sponsors and ARC members. I don't think there will be enough prizes for everyone but we will go through the list once and and for those with multiple builds we will start again. The Current sponsors are, Hi-Decal Caracal Models Reid Air Publications If you would like to become a sponsor of the GB or would just like to donate something to the raffle please send me a PM. Keep in mind that you will be responsible for shipping and the GB is open to people around the world. If you want to keep the price of shipping down and want to limit to certain continents or CONUS just let me know. I have some banners that I posted HERE and feel free to use them. You can modify them or build your own to fit your build. If you want you can post your banner in the Group Build Banners thread so others can use them. Most importantly we are here to have fun so lets get to it! Edited January 8, 2013 by Spectre711 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Spectre711 Posted June 16, 2013 Author Share Posted June 16, 2013 (edited) The build officially ends July 1st but since these forums don't get locked out I encourage anyone who has started a build here to finish it up when time allows but post your progress here. As far as the end raffle goes I'm going to make the deadline July 7th for completed builds to be eligible for the drawings. :thumbsup:/>/> Edited June 16, 2013 by Spectre711 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
niki4703 Posted June 17, 2013 Share Posted June 17, 2013 Yup, of course! You're a mind reader also... :) Thanks for that Spectre! I'd like to be able to finish what I've started even if that means possibly crossing the deadline a bit. Thanks again! Niki Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Spectre711 Posted June 18, 2013 Author Share Posted June 18, 2013 I had an EF-111A I started to build back in August of 2010 for the Desert Storm GB and didn't get it done until this past December. I was happy to see that the GBs were not locked so I could finish the build. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Spectre711 Posted July 8, 2013 Author Share Posted July 8, 2013 No problem, I'll be posting the raffle winners shortly after 11PM Eastern US time. I'm having my kids pull the names out of the hat again. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
